Adding students to a collaboration

[BethanyJOHNSTON]

Hi there,

I'm trying to set up a collaboration, however it won't let me click on more than one or two students' names before the new names I click, replace the old. I then clicked on the 'group' tab, thinking maybe I have to add them all at the same time. I enabled the app, nothing really happened. I went back into the 'collaborators' tab and 80% of the class list had disappeared. When it asks what 'type' of collaboration I'm starting it just has 'word', 'powerpoint' or 'excel' as the options, and I couldn't find a guide that correlated so I'm a bit lost. Do I just have to keep the collabs. to two students?

I don't think there are any limitations as you describe for Collaborations.  These are the Guides for Collaborations:

• How do I use the Collaborations Index Page?
• How do I create a Google Docs collaboration as an instructor?
• How do I create a Google Drive collaboration as an instructor?
• How do I create a Microsoft Office 365 collaboration as an instructor?
• How do I delete a collaboration as an instructor?

Which type of collaboration are you trying to set up in your course?  Does the Guide for the type of collaboration you are setting up help in any way?

Looking forward to hearing back from you soon!

One of the teachers have asked to be added to one of my classes that she is the inclusion teacher for.

Hi Chris,

Thanks for your reply! The 'type' of collaboration I'm trying to set up just says Word. It's not Word 365, or Google Docs (which is blocked). I don't think it's the program as such, it seems like a problem with how it's running within the school. It just won't let me add more than two students. I'm looking for a way to troubleshoot it.
